Why can't you look at me?
Do you truly hate what you see?
Do you remember what we used to be?
When you used to love me?
Probably not
It's been a while since we've been at that spot
When our eyes would lock
And I'd take your breath away
And I'd never wonder my place
Or if you'd want me to stay
Now it feels like all we do is scream
To remember what that passion felt like
And it'd be nice
If when you'd talk I could listen
And when I told you I loved you
It wouldn't be a half truth
Because I'm half through
With the US that leaves me feeling lonely
When it's just us 2
With the US that lives in a suffocating silence
With the US full of uncertainty
Is that why you can't look at me?

Why Just Write Is The Best Advice You Don’t Listen To
Before the last 6 months, I hadn’t written anything that wasn’t for my job or university for a number of years. I wanted to write more, I used to write all the time just for fun. I used to write poems and short stories that were just for me. I used to show them to certain members of my family but it was the process of writing them that I really enjoyed.
